"If you give someone a fish, they'll eat for a day; If you teach someone to fish, they'll eat for a lifetime"
There is a dark version of this proverb, @yongjoon, and it goes like this:
“If you buy a plane ticket to someone, they’ll fly for a day; throw someone out of a plane, they’ll fly for the rest of a lifetime”
Sound appropriate for a long farewell to this year…
